Around the League: 2017 offseason edition / 2018 Season

For discussion reasons, he has the opt out at the end of the year. His fast ball velo has steadily declined over the past few seasons, and this season he has already been disabled twice....have to think it would be better to just opt into the rest of the contract rather than opt out...

I know as a buyer, i'm not giving him the dollar amount he is going to ask for.

I can’t imagine he wouldn’t get 4 or 5 years at a higher average salary than what he has left. He’s Clayton freaking Kershaw and somebody is going to bet on that.

Tommy John is about all I see affecting that.

Yeah i still think he'd get at least 4 years, 120/5/150 at the very least unless he had TJ.

But his back issues are becoming pretty concerning, he's still Clayton Kershaw though.
 
More proof Odor is a punk turd, but I’m more interested in Simmons’ response:

Simmons refused to elaborate further as to what happened on the play.

"Nothing," Simmons said while eating gelato. "I was trying to tell him, 'You forgot to say hello to your family for me.' He's like, 'No, I didn't forget, I told them.' I was like, 'No, they told me you didn't tell them.' He wasn't very happy about it, so it's OK.

"... I'm gonna eat my gelato and sleep well at night."

Newcomb’s been great, and I like Swanson; but neither is NotNot.
 
Jonny Venters is listed as the probable starter tonight for Tampa.
Interesting.

It did not go well for ol’ Jonny Ventar—5 runs in 0.1 ip, and the Zombie Expos with a firm lead now.
 
Congrats to Matt Kemp on winning MVP I guess. 3/3 tonight with a homer, 3 runs scored and 5 RBI. Now hitting .355. Kinda wish we still had him, but that would mean we didn't have Culberson

Urrrrrr, UZR! Errrr, DRS! Derpitta derpitta derpitta.
Urrrr, worthless! Urrr, average-driven! Errrrrr, derp, derp, BABIP!
Fools! Sig bet! Ignoramus! Leave board!
